I have a problem that first I thought was something that I was
doing wrong but now I'm not sure and would like confirmation of how
the Context mechanism works in RunRev.
I have the following setup:
1 StackMain:Card1:ObjectA:mouseUp - Calls Function
StackUtil:PutMessage("MessageX")
2 StackUtil:PutMessage - Calls Handler
StackMain:Card2:ObjectX:MessageX (via send)
3 StackMain:Card2:ObjectX:MessageX - Put "MessageX" into me and
then Calls Function StackUtil:PutMessage("MessageY")
4 StackUtil:PutMessage - Calls Handler
StackMain:Card2:ObjectY:MessageY (via send)
5 StackMain:Card2:ObjectY:MessageY - Put "MessageY" into me
In this case the "put" statement at step 5 does NOT put "MessageY"
into StackMain:Card2:ObjectY (the object is unchanged), but the
"put" at step 3 works ok.
If I change the code at Step 5 to read:
put "MessageY" into field "FieldY" of group "Y" of card 2 of stack
"/Documents/Test/StackMain.rev" (e.g. the hard coded name of the
object).
Try ensuring that the 'sharedText' property of your target fields are
set to true.
If the sharedText is false, the field stores and retrieves its data
from a card-local store, rather than its private store. Since
'sending' a message only changes the default stack and not the
current card of that stack, the active card store will be the card
you aren't expecting.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
